6 種價值不斐的 20 世紀 70 年代硬幣

尋找有價值的硬幣的收藏家不必追溯到一個世紀或更久以前才能找到它們——他們只需回到幾十年前的迪斯科音樂和休閒服時代即可。

Coin collectors don’t have to go back a century or more to find valuable coins — they can just pop back a few decades to the era of disco music and leisure suits. Several U.S. coins from the 1970s can fetch you a lot of money on the collector’s market, with the priciest ones valued in five figures.

錢幣收藏家不必回到一個世紀或更久以前才能找到有價值的錢幣——他們只需回到幾十年前的迪斯科音樂和休閒套裝時代即可。幾枚 20 世紀 70 年代的美國硬幣可以在收藏市場上賣到很多錢，最貴的硬幣價值五位數。

As with many collectible coins, the most valuable ones from the 1970s have some kind of error or distinctive feature that sets them apart from the crowd. Those with the highest values tend to have the lowest denominations — pennies and nickels.

與許多收藏硬幣一樣，20 世紀 70 年代最有價值的硬幣都存在某種錯誤或獨特的特徵，使它們與眾不同。那些價值最高的硬幣往往面額最低——便士和鎳幣。

Here are six coins from the 1970s that are worth a lot of money, according to the LoveToKnow website. Values are based on auction sales from previous years and might be even higher on the 2024 market. Keep in mind that a coin’s condition will also help determine its value.

根據 LoveToKnow 網站的介紹，這裡有六枚 20 世紀 70 年代的硬幣，價值不菲。價格基於前幾年的拍賣銷售情況，2024 年市場上的價格可能會更高。請記住，硬幣的狀況也將有助於確定其價值。

1971-S Doubled Die Obverse Penny: $10,350

1971 年 S 版雙模正面便士：10,350 美元

Double die mistakes happen when the metal gets struck multiple times by the die (or design stamp) on either the front (obverse), reverse, or both sides. The result is a “sharper relief and sometimes a wonky positioning,” according to LoveToKnow. Double die mistakes in mint or near-mint condition, like this one, usually sell for very high amounts.

當金屬在正面（正面）、反面或兩側被模具（或設計印記）多次撞擊時，就會發生雙模具錯誤。 LoveToKnow 表示，其結果是「更明顯的緩解，有時甚至是不穩定的定位」。全新或接近全新狀態的雙模錯誤（例如這件）通常售價非常高。

1974-S Reverse Brockage of 1973-S Penny: $11,400

1974-S 1973-S 便士的反向拆解：11,400 美元

A high-grade specimen of this Lincoln penny sold for $11,400 through Heritage Auctions in 2020. “Brockage” coins are prized by collectors because they have the normal design on one side and the mirror image on the other. For example, this 1974-S penny features the standard printed Lincoln portrait on the front and the backwards 1973 Lincoln design on the reverse. A brockage is a rare deformity that happens when the die gets stuck.

2020 年，這枚林肯便士的高級樣品在 Heritage Auctions 拍賣會上以 11,400 美元的價格售出。例如，這枚 1974-S 便士的正面印有標準的林肯肖像，背面印有 1973 年林肯的背面圖案。斷裂是模具卡住時發生的一種罕見的畸形。

1979 Susan B. Anthony Dollar Over 1978 Jefferson Nickel: $15,275

1979 年 Susan B. Anthony Dollar 超過 1978 年 Jefferson Nickel：15,275 美元

This coin features a minting mistake with the image of Susan B. Anthony stamped over the top of Monticello on a Jefferson nickel. Overstamps like this are extremely rare to begin with, but this one stands out because it involves two separate years.

這枚硬幣有鑄造錯誤，傑斐遜鎳幣上的蒙蒂塞洛頂部印有蘇珊·B·安東尼 (Susan B. Anthony) 的圖像。像這樣的蓋章一開始就非常罕見​​，但這一個很突出，因為它涉及兩個不同的年份。

1971-S Deep Cameo Proof Penny: $17,250

1971-S 深浮雕精製便士：17,250 美元

A “proof” coin is one that is not intended for circulation as currency, but rather to serve as a model for the future coins. LoveToKnow described proof coins as “the most beautiful and perfectly minted coins possible,” and refers to this specific Lincoln penny as a “superb proof.”

「精製」硬幣不是為了作為貨幣流通，而是作為未來硬幣的模型。 LoveToKnow 將精製硬幣描述為“最美麗、鑄造最完美的硬幣”，並將這枚特定的林肯便士稱為“極好的精製硬幣”。

1970-S Small Date Penny: $18,400

1970 年 S 小號日期便士：18,400 美元

According to a blog on the Dave’s Collectible Coins site, this rare 1970-S small-date penny is characterized by “a more delicate date of a finer punch as compared to the large date variety.” The large-date coin will show a 7 that is “relatively level” with the rest of the date, whereas the small-date version is not nearly as level.

根據 Dave's Collectible Coins 網站上的一篇博客，這款罕見的 1970-S 小日期便士的特點是「與大日期品種相比，日期更精緻，沖孔更精細」。大日期硬幣將顯示與日期其餘部分「相對水平」的 7，而小日期版本則不那麼水平。

1970-S Large Date Penny: $24,150

1970-S 大日期便士：24,150 美元

Here’s an example of a large-date Lincoln penny having greater value than its small-date counterpart. As LoveToKnow noted, the value of this specimen comes from the fact that it’s a doubled die obverse proof penny in very good condition.

這是一個大日期林肯便士的例子，其價值高於小日期的同類硬幣。正如 LoveToKnow 所指出的，該樣本的價值在於它是一枚狀況非常好的雙模正面精製便士。
